I'd imagine there's a point where the money from subscriptions is greater than the money from advertising and data hoarding.

The "unreasonably high" prices should be self-solving in that context, because the company won't make more money by selling ads for less than the price of a subscription.

In fact, in order to justify raising the prices too much they'd have to change more for the ads, which in turn would hurt the ad industry by reducing the ROI in marketing.

Yeah I never understood why ads make so much money. Seems like some kind of gift is going on.
